Anyone know what size the drive axle hub nut is? I need to replace the bearing assy and would like to get the right size axle nut socket.

94 Lumina Z34
3.4 L DOHC

Put transmission in neutral then take off front motor mounts and you can rotate engine forward to allow room in back to work

There are 3 mounts right? 1 upper, 2 at the timing chain end and one at the transaxle end. So which ones do I remove (I know about the upper one) and which ones do I loosen?

You have a 3.4. Don't bother removing your mounts in the fleeting hope that you engine will tip forward. It won't. :disappoin Only the 3.1's were afforded that luxury.

Thanks
